The Color Line in the Episcopal Church.

COLUMBIA, s. c., May 16.-The Episcopal
diocesan convention. which adjourned on Satur-
day evening, is the absorbing topic everywhere,
and dwelt upon in number of sermons
yesterday. The great majority of Episcopaans
are in deadly opposition to the negro being nd
but few friends in the stand which they have
taken. It is asserted by their lay opponents
that if the negro is allowed to voss in the con-
vention. in ten or fifteen years he will govern
some Law members to organize and discharge all
the preachers opposed to them and favoripe the
admission of the coiored man into the conven-
ton. and to elect ministers who would vote
exclude the negro. There is much bitter feeling.

Joking Too Much for Them.

John Bull is still not safe party to joke with.
On Tuesday the Pail Mall Gazette printed lot
Of burlesque autograph letters Of Dillon,
O'Brien, Healy and Mr.. Mccarthy, expressing
the most bloodthirsty sentiments. The article
was concluded by a stat2ment that the editor
was prepared to furnish electro signatures of
this sort in quantities appended to any kind of
letters that purchasers wanted. and yet so clever
a man a Sir John Lubbock actually took this
of to the lobby of the House of Commons in tri-
umph pointing to the bogus autograph plates as
proof of the =oTst Things said about the Irish,
and one liberal Unionist in the North is said to
have a quantity for distribution, with full con-
yiction that they were genuine.

BERLIN. May 16.-The governments notifca-
ton to the land and house-owners in Metz,
Posen and Strasburg that additional land and
buildings will be required to carry out its inten-
ton of enarging the scope of the frontier forti-
cations has created in those provinces feeling
of indignation not entirely free from alarm. The
thrifty inhabitants of the districts affected by
this peremptory warning have appreciation
of a patriotic feeling sufficiently intense to in
duce them willingly sacrifice their cultivated
fields without compensation. and the knowledge
that they must do whether they like the idea
or not, together with the consciousness that
ample Notifications afford no guarantee of peace,
makes them very uncomfortable.

Coercion Denounced by TreveIyan.

LONDON. May 16-Mr. George Otto Trevelyan
was the guest of the evening at banquet given
in his honor at the Eighty Club tonight He

speak, and uproariously applauded as ne sat

and to the majority of those present
great satisfaction. He especially
we're in his condemnation of the govern
mcnt's policy of c"ercion, which, he said
was wholly without excuse and excessively
just. and could have other effect than the
natural one of exasperatng the Irish people
What had divided the Liberal party was not,
many affected to believe, the question of grant
ing home rule to Ireland, but that of granting
absolute liberty the people of Ireland, and. al
though the text of Mr. Gladstone's Irish bill was
dead, the spirit of generosity toward
and confidence IN Ireland which had
actuated those measures still existed.
If Lord Harrington and his followers
were desirous of returning to the Liberal party,
they would be welcomed back after they had
concluded with their former co-workers a treaty
based upon the four conditions laid down in
Lord Hartips stors election addresses to his
stituents. Mr.. Trevelyan's speech created
veritaple sensation in the lobby of the House of
Commons. this evening. and is regarded by the

Danger of Boxing the Ears

i'OolOu buuStI
DIR. Samuel Sexton has contributed an
article to the Medical Record on the sub
ject of boxing the ears. He has upon
his records ffty-one cases in which the
ear has been injured by blows OF the
open hand or list. OF these, thirty-oue
were males and twenty females. OF the
males, thirteen had been boxed upon the
right ear, thirteen upon the left, and
three upon both ears. One was kicked
0y companion upon the left ear while
bathing, and the right ear of another
was Injured by having the head VIC
lently squeezed between the hands of
another person. OF the females, four
teen we're struck upon the left ear and
six upon the right. Five Of the women
were assaulted by their husbands. OF the
entire number, eight were boxed in play,
four 6J school teachers, two by parents
and one, feryent lover, by his sweet
heart. Several cases occurred among
pugiltsts, and others were due to as
ssults and brswls. The nature of the
injuries varied to considerable de-
gree. One had inflammation in the ear.
with suspicion OF intracranial trouble. He
had had running of the ear for twelve
years, following blow upon that organ.
This patient subsequently died of brain
disease. In another case the ear became
lnhamed and the hearing was very much
impaired. In still another the patient
was slapped by his father upon the left
ear. Immediate psin and deafness fol-
lowed, with bloody discharge from the
ear. II was three months before this case
recovered. The dangers TO which DR..
Sexton calls attention are so grave that
parents, teachers and others should never
punish those committed to their charge
by boxing their ears.
